While is does work, as well as any combination so that there is one space in front or of in back of the slash, I agree with sketch that for visual appearance and text wrapping we should not use any of these combinations.

Regardless, we hope to have it fixed, as the problem is more widespread than the examples mentioned in past posts.

@report:The street name is correct. It is "SR-7 / 159th St". But it says "State Route Seven Thousand One Hundred Fifty Ninth Street".

For those unable to see that UR.Have there been any recent changes to fix this? I searched and couldn't find anything related to this particular thing. And if this isn't TTS issue per se, what would be the recommendation to fix?

I've been testing this for a few days, and have more tests to go. So far, here is a progress report with some interesting test results. (For those not aware, a "%20" in the text is a space.)

SR-7%20/%205013st%20St = state route seven <pause> five thousand thirteenth street (notice that it ignores the first "st" in this example)

SR-7%20/%205013nd%20St = state route seven <pause> five thousand thirteenth street (notice that it ignores the "nd" in this example)

SR-7%20/%205013rd%20St = state route seven <pause> five thousand thirteenth street (notice that it ignores the "rd" in this example)

SR-7%20/%205013th%20St = state route seven <pause> five thousand thirteenth street (notice that it ignores the "th" in this example)

SR-7%20/%205012th%20St = state route seven <pause> five thousand thirteenth street (notice that it ignores the "th" in this example)

Observations:- Although I was able to remove the "Exit to " from the tests, I did not yet work to narrow the test further.- Numbers from 0 to 999 produce the error. Numbers from 1000 to some untested limit do not. Further testing is needed for digit count rather then actual numbers, such as "0999" vs "999".- "...st, ...nd, ...rd, ...th" as number suffixes are usually ignored, in favor of what the actual number would say. The "...st" is an exception for some cases that I need to test for again.- At one point in the tests I heard "Saint" for "st" (no period). I will need to test further to discover it again.

The two other strange issues mentioned earlier are still not submitted to them, as testing has been tenuous at best lately with the ongoing zero byte TTS file returns as many of you have noticed in the beta clients.

I'll try to test this issue more to resubmit it AGAIN to Waze.

Although I had recently submitted the "Malcolm X" issue to Waze, I have since removed the submission as there is a larger issue with Roman Numerals that needs to be addressed. In another thread elsewhere, I posted the following:

Here are the very inconsistent results I found testing just a few Roman Numeral examples:

Curiously the results for [Malcolm X] are correct for Roman Numeral usage, but wrong for what we need for that particular name,whereas other names with "X" say "ex" as in the letter x.

We may need to use [Malcolm "X"] to get the results we want, in order to differentiate from Roman Numerals usage. This would be consistent with the use of quotes around N, E, S, and W to get the letters pronounced instead of the cardinal directions.

Also note that for some names "XIV" is pronounced "fifth" and other others "fourteenth".
